Default Hooking up a sub...

Hi, i am going to be putting a system in my car soon. Since they're leased i cant drill a hole through the firewall... Theres 2 scenarios to this - My first car is an Audi A4 (2001, no standard sub) Is there anyway i can wire **** without going throught the firewall? Second is an 2003 Acura TL ( comes with a factory installed sub) for this one can i just add a sub to this existing hookup? Sorry, im a total noob when it comes to car audio.

1st: you dont have to drill a hole in the firewall to run wire, there should be plenty of spots to sneak in some wire.

2nd: the new sub your going to put is going to require another amp since the factory one will not have enough power.

i do systems all the time and i never have to drill unless they want the amps screwed into the seats.

there will be enough room, there are plenty of wires that go through the firewall to get to the fusebox / battery etc. use a hanger but bend the tip so it cant snag and cut any wires so you can run the wires you need.
